Instructions
The beginning chain is in sets of 5. Please chain in groups of 5 until you get a chain long enough to go around your head. When trying the chain on around your head, allows for an inch of shrinkage. If you keep your chain in groups of 5, you can resize the hat for any size head.
- Chain in sets of 5 and measure around your head. Mikey's hat is 75 chains. Ensure the chain is not twisted and join with a slip stitch to form a large ring.
- Ch 2, HDC in each chain around. Join with a Slip Stitch.

I made the hat down to row 14 and 16 it seemed the pattern was different than the video. The video was much better. I made it by watching the video. Tell me if I was doing something wrong with the written pattern. I really love you videos and patterns. Thank you for all you hard work.
Kanda says
I just worked this pattern and it seems to me that the pattern is off at row 14 from the video to the pattern and then again at row 16. Did anyone else have this problem? I went by the video row 14 on.

Hi Mikey!
Thanks for a great pattern--I was looking for something different to add to my box of donation hats and this is perfect--I can even add a flower on to it so whomever gets it feels pretty. Just because you are homeless, have cancer or are just down on your luck doesn't mean you don't want to feel like you look great! Plenty warm enough for even our winters down south too. Thank you again for putting yourself out there with thoughts and ideas--I appreciate every bit of it!
Lindsay says
This was a really neat pattern. I'd like to make some to sell if that would be alright?
